-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Taking action and making an effort
is the very spirit of Buddhism.
For a person
For a person
who is continually advancing
there is always growth
there is always growth
and an overflowing sense of joy.
By taking
By taking
an indomitable step forwards,
let's advance
let's advance
the expansion and development
of the happiness of both ourselves
and others!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The path of kosen-rufu is a long, ongoing series of struggles from which we can never retreat. To have this awareness and embody the principle that 'difficulties are peace and comfort' (cf. OTT, 115) is what it means to apply the Daishonin's teachings to our lives and is the heart of the Soka Gakkai spirit."
